    This should rile some people up. Somehow I suspect you are on a fishing trip.

    All the more reason NOT to sell the one I have. I heard this a few months back but I thought those bikes would not be "imported" to the U.S. Not sure though.

    Free market capitalism and doing whatever possible to maximize profits. The CEO and the board of directors all deserve huge bonuses for this, and anyone that doesn't think so is a fucking communist.

    Damn right...doing what the stock holders pay them to do. Nice to see you coming to your senses.

    Is great to see a true American company expand its product to foreign markets. Building them overseas will greatly reduce export and tariff costs while offering a quality product at a marketable and fair price. Good news for sure....

    They should close the Milwaukee factory and just make them in India. More profit=bigger bonuses!

    Makes you wonder when Henry Ford set up factories in England, South America, Europe, and the USSR if the stock holders and the American workers were ready to skin him alive, or consider him an American idustrial hero?

    Doesn't Ford and GM both still have factories in Autralia?

    Wonder if the Japanese think Toyota, Honda, and Nissan are greedy corporate bastards for setting up shop here.


    Or, could it possibly be..........that zombie and ram are shit stirring morons and a completely clueless how business works on a global scale?

    The problem with Obama jokes is that his worshippers don't think they are funny, and the rest of us don't think they are jokes

    I for one wouldn't be opposed to laying you off and bringing in an undocumented worker to fill your position here in the prf. Think of all the money that can be saved by cutting your overpaid union ass.

    HP annouces that they are going to lay off 27,000 employees and the stock takes off. What does that tell you how the stockholders feel about employee glut? Guess it goes to show you that its not the greed of the CEOs like the whiney anti capitolists here would have you believe. But it the DEMAND of the AMERICAN INVESTOR!!! Long live the POWER of the AMERICAN INVESTOR and long live FREE ENTERPRISE!!! If I wanted to live like a Cuban or North Korean, I would move there. Wish is exactly what ram, zombie, 1986, Shue, and R&D should do. Hopefully right after Romney kicks Zero's ass out of the WH. Living in a country where you have to actually work and produce is unimaginable to them.
